May 16, 201214 yr Calling for an armed revolution. I got more on him too, as soon as I can find the links. The Cincinnati Monocle: Eric Deters is Going Nuts!
May 16, 201214 yr Author Federal Lawsuit Filed In Fountain Square Shooting - :: Cincinnati news story :: LOCAL 12 WKRC-TV in Cincinnati Didn't take him long to fine a controversial case, and be on the questionable side. This past summer an armed 16 year old got into a scuffle with a police office and pulled a gun on the officer, the officer had to shoot the teen, he ended up dying shortly after. Now Deters has filed a suit against the officer stating that the officer took the gun away from the teen and shot and killed the teen, then laid the teens gun next to him. Question #1: Who seeked who in this case? He had a previous case or two where he seeked out a client, which is a reason he was barred for a while. Question #2: How long until Deters gets banned for life from practicing law?
May 16, 201214 yr Not to defend him, but the family of the young man who was shot, did say when this happened that they would be filing civil suite against CPD and the officer if I remember correctly.

May 16, 201214 yr Author ^ agreed, but it's who took the case, and how did he get/find it. As he will be watched closer now on how he gets some of these cases.
May 16, 201214 yr ^ watched for what exactly? If a client comes to him about an issue, and he wants to take the case, why wouldn't he?
May 17, 201214 yr Author ^ one of the reasons he was suspended is he was accused of going to people telling them he wanted to represent them. Cant do that.
May 17, 201214 yr Author I'll wait and see what comes out. But with the filing of the suit CPD has to release the full police report.
May 17, 201214 yr ^ one of the reasons he was suspended is he was accused of going to people telling them he wanted to represent them. Cant do that. How is that any different from the litany of lawyers dying to represent us in any number of potential case situations? Technically, The Heavy Hitter is seeking out clients with his ads.
May 17, 201214 yr Author Yes, but ads are a lot different than learning about an accident and calling the family before they contact you, it's an ethics violation, one that got him suspended. He called a Mr Clise when his son was in the hospital who was involved in a school bus accident when the kid was in the hospital. Deters was representing Mrs Clise at the time.
May 17, 201214 yr Author But what about his rant when he said we all need to arm ourselves and head to the Whitehouse?
May 17, 201214 yr Anyone watch Harry's Law? Deters sounds like the character Tommy Jefferson. Yes! I was going to post this, but I couldn't remember Tommy Jefferson's name.
May 17, 201214 yr Now Deters has filed a suit against the officer stating that the officer took the gun away from the teen and shot and killed the teen, then laid the teens gun next to him.A friend of mine witnessed the event, and this accusation is blatantly false.
